Description
The Faculty Micro Grants program, offered by the Robert J. Havey, MD Institute for Global Health at Northwestern University, provides small grants to full-time Northwestern faculty who are actively mentoring medical students in the Area of Scholarly Concentration (AOSC) program. The primary goal is to support global health research and student mentorship by funding travel to international partner sites, basic study supplies, and essential software. The program prioritizes projects with significant research activity in partner countries and is intended to provide short-term, modest support rather than funding long-term research initiatives.
